Hi, I’m Ben — a longtime Oregonian, independent writer, grassroots troublemaker, and occasional digital relic who cut his teeth building TheMUD.com back in the late 1990s before selling the domain and moving on to bigger fights.

What started years ago as a creative outlet for photography and commentary has turned into something much bigger: a plainspoken, unapologetic effort to call out government gone wrong, defend local accountability, and speak up for the land, liberty, and everyday people of Oregon.

You’ll find most of my writing at Ben’s Viewpoint on Substack, where I cut through the noise with sharp, fact-driven commentary on Oregon politics, local government, taxes, regulations, civic engagement, and the ongoing fight to keep our Republic from being managed into the ditch by people who think every problem requires another fee, tax, permit, program, or public-relations slogan.
